Above CV! Great experience

Above CV! Great experience

We had an outstanding experience with Jo as our agent and have since recommended her to family and friends. Her impeccable style is matched by her warmth, professionalism, and deep understanding of the local market. Jo went above and beyond to prepare our home for auction, from staging and working with the builder for the CCC, to organizing property maintenance. She was also incredibly understanding and respectful of our young children, making the entire process a breeze. Thanks to her efforts, we received pre-auction offers that were $300k above the CV and ultimately sold well above it to an auction bidder. The result was fantastic!

Above and beyond any expectations you could have

Above and beyond any expectations you could have

From start to finish Jo was just so easy to deal with! Not pushy, but ridiculously organised. There wasn’t a single thing she wasn’t able to assist us with. She organised painters, builders, gardeners, builders reports, trailers, all on short notice. We never could have got our house ready for sale in the time we did without her. Quite frankly, she genuinely cares deeply about all her clients. I never thought I would consider our estate agent our friend, but I do now (and our kids love her). She was also keen to help us find our next home, as to her, that’s when the journey of selling your own home is complete. It has taken 9 months (cos we had some very complex requirements), but she has been with us, supporting us, the whole way, dealing with paperwork, visiting endless houses with us, and lots of out-of-hours texts. Whenever I told an estate agent we were working with Jo, they always said “You are in very good hands there, she will take good care of you”. They were not wrong!!

Selling and Buying! thanks Jo

I have recently sold my home with the help of Jo Harwood. Jo made the experience easy and as stress-free as possible. Having not sold or bought in New Zealand before, Jo helped me through the process and made it understandable and straightforward. She was always on hand to answer questions, concerns and was so knowledgeable and extremely professional. Her wide-reaching contacts brought viewers to open homes, based totally on her recommendation. She achieved a great result on Auction Day. I was so impressed with Jo, I enlisted her help in buying my next home. She listened to my requirements and actually found the home I have now bought. Again, Jo was there at every step of the process to ensure things went smoothly and her help in securing the house outside of auction was an amazing outcome! I would highly recommend Jo!

Over $200k CV in a sluggish market

Over $200k CV in a sluggish market

We have used Jo to sell our last two homes. Each time she achieved amazing results for us. Most recently we obtained a sale price of over $200k over CV in a sluggish market. Needless to say we were ecstatic. Jo is courteous and professional to deal with. She certainly goes the extra mile to seek out the best offers possible in any circumstance. We would not hesitate to recommend Jo and her team. She has built an army of value enhancing professionals such as stagers and photographers, and makes the entire process a breeze.

SHE'S THE ONE!

I read the reviews and I chose Jo - best decision ever! She had the wonderful mix of all the qualities I wanted for selling my house...patient, professional, kind, knowledgeable and the all important positivity coupled with a lovely sense of humour, keeping everything in perspective. Whatever I needed, she had the solution with prompt, seamless communication and the determination to get my house sold for the best possible price in a very tricky market. Forever grateful Jo,for your incredible support, encouragement and a great result.

Absolutely recommend!

Myself and my husband were exhausted going to open homes all weekend, every weekend, the last of which we met Jo. She went out of her way to reach out and offer to help us find our first home. We had a listing on our watchlist which was by viewing only and Jo managed to get us in right away! She could tell we loved it and she went above and beyond to negotiate the price within our budget and had everything organised and ready for us to go unconditional in less than a week. It was truly an amazing service and we don’t think we would be in the same position without her! So happy with our home and can see ourselves here for a very long time, thank you Jo!

We were extremely pleased with the result of our house sale.

Jo was definitely the right person to sell our house. Right from the start, we were impressed by Jo’s energy and positivity, backed up by her knowledge and professionalism. Communication from Jo was excellent (phone calls and emails) throughout the process of selling our house, and we were pleased with all the advice we received about how to sell, open homes etc. We had an issue that needed to be addressed during the selling of our house and Jo went above and beyond to help us sort it out. We cannot rate Jo highly enough and absolutely recommend her to anyone thinking of selling their house.

We had a fantastic experience working with Jo and would highly recommend as an agent.

We had a wonderful experience with Jo selling our home. She was incredibly bubbly, professional, knowledgeable and had excellent insight into the local market. Her communication was top-notch; she kept us informed every step of the way and responded quickly to our questions without hesitation. Even going the extra mile to organise home staging, maintenance jobs and private viewings. We can’t thank her enough and highly recommend Jo to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
